Seminary registration: Tanzeemul Madaris refuses to cooperate
2005-08-29
The Tanzeemul Madaris (Barelvi) said on Sunday that it would not cooperate with the government on registering religious seminaries under the Amended Society Registration Act 1860. “No seminary will be registered till the government resolves the issues and problems faced by them (seminaries),” Mufti Muneebur Rehman, Tanzeemul Madaris president, told a press conference. “We want the government to start talking to the Ittehad-e-Tanzimat-e-Madaris-e-Dinya (ITMD) and settle all issues,” he said, demanding the government ban law enforcement agencies from visiting seminaries.
Gee, golly. I just can't imagine why they'd want to keep the coppers out...
